We will meet you at our paragliding base 15 minutes before the booked time (the shuttle leaves 15 minutes before your booking time) to show you your equipment and get to know each other. After meeting your pilot, we will drive you to the starting point on the Forclaz Pass. Any accompanying person will not be able to take the shuttle with you, but they can meet you when you land.

A great experience, starting at the booking and questions asked and awnsered before the fight. The trouble they took to find me that extraordinary big helmet. The ride up the mountain was informative and fun end upon arriving the view was nothing less than spectacular. The flight was wonderful and the landing smooth. Thanks to Max and Cederic.
